Art Deco Platinum Diamond and Sapphire Stick Pin Elegant Estate Heirloom
Located in New York, NY
A striking example of 1920s Art Deco refinement, this platinum stick pin showcases a beautifully balanced combination of diamonds and sapphires in a design that epitomizes the geometric symmetry and timeless allure of the era. At its center glows a 0.48-carat European cut diamond, celebrated for its old-world brilliance and hand-cut facets that capture light with soft, romantic sparkle. The center stone is flanked by two additional 2mm European-cut diamonds, bringing the total diamond weight to approximately 0.72 carats, and enhanced by two sleek baguette-cut sapphires measuring 4mm x 1mm, their deep midnight-blue hue offering a sophisticated contrast. The entire piece weighs 4.76 grams total, crafted in luminous platinum, the precious metal most revered in Art Deco jewelry.
Art Deco jewels like this remain highly collectible and increasingly valuable as estate treasures. They embody the elegance of the Jazz Age—a time when craftsmanship and modernism intersected to create wearable works of art. The use of platinum, European-cut diamonds, and calibrated sapphires was a hallmark of the period’s luxury houses, symbolizing innovation and enduring beauty. As fine examples of hand-fabricated Art Deco jewelry grow rarer, this pin represents both historic artistry and investment-worthy value.
This elegant piece transitions effortlessly from daytime sophistication to evening glamour. Worn on a lapel, tie, hat, scarf, or evening gown, it suits both men and women, reflecting the return of brooches and pins as fashion statements on international runways. Perfect for formal occasions, art events, or special celebrations, it adds a distinguished touch that speaks of heritage, refinement, and impeccable taste.
A true estate collectible, this Art Deco diamond and sapphire stick pin...

Vintage brooches, which refer to decorative jewelry traditionally pinned to garments and used to fasten pieces of clothing together where needed, have seen increasing popularity in recent years.
While jewelry trends come and go, brooches are indeed back on the radar thanks to fashion houses like Gucci, Versace, Dior and Saint Laurent, all of which feature fun pinnable designs in their current collections. Whether a dazzlingly naturalistic Art Nouveau dragonfly, a whimsical David Webb animal, a gem-studded bloom or a streamlined abstract design, these jewels add color and sparkle to your look and a spring to your step.
Given their long history, brooches have expectedly taken on a variety of different shapes and forms over time, with jewelers turning to assorted methods of ornamentation for these accessories, including enameling and the integration of pearls and gemstones.
Cameo brooches that originated during the Victorian age are characterized by a shell carved in raised relief that feature portraits of a woman’s profile, while 19th-century micromosaic brooches, comprising innumerable individually placed glass fragments, sometimes feature miniature depictions of a pastoral scene in daily Roman life.
At one time, brooches were symbols of wealth, made primarily from the finest metals and showcasing exquisite precious gemstones. Today, these jewels are inclusive and universal, and you don’t have to travel very far to find an admirer of brooches. They can be richly geometric in form, such as the ornate diamond pins dating from the Art Deco era, or designer-specific, such as the celebrated naturalistic works created by Tiffany & Co., the milk glass and gold confections crafted by Trifari or handmade vintage Chanel brooches of silk or laminated sheer fabric. Chanel, of course, has never abandoned this style, producing gorgeously baroque CC examples since the 1980s.
Brooches are versatile and adaptable. These decorative accessories can be worn in your hair, on hats, scarves and on the lower point of V-neck clothing. Pin a dazzling brooch to the lapel of your blazer-and-tee combo or add a cluster of smaller pins to your overcoat. And while brooches have their place in “mourning jewelry,” in that a mourning brooch is representative of your connection to a lost loved one, they’re widely seen as romantic and symbolic of love, so much so that a hardcore brooch enthusiast might advocate for brooches to be worn over the heart.
Today, find a wide variety of antique and vintage brooches for sale on 1stDibs, including gold brooches, sapphire brooches and more.
